River Styx got up and left the quiet room for practice. He walked out of the small courtyard and headed for the library of Yunling Academy. Since entering the academy for several months, River Styx had been busy recovering his strength. Today was his first time walking in the academy. Everything in the academy was strange to him. Even the library that he was fascinated by was just a dot on the map to him.
Speaking of which, although River Styx had become the Level Three Weapon Refining Teacher of Yunling Academy, he had never fulfilled any of his responsibilities. Although he could get 110,000 contribution points every 1,000 years (I wrote wrongly before, because the contribution points per year were too short), he also had an obligation. Within 1,000 years, River Styx had to refine at least three Upper Grade Primordial Treasures for the academy.
This was not a big deal for River Styx. After all, he had already started refining Chaotic Lingbao. He was at least equivalent to a Level Five Weapon Refining Teacher in the academy. Refining three Upper Grade Primordial Treasures in 1,000 years was not a problem for him. Moreover, the academy had already prepared the refining materials, so there was no need for River Styx to worry about it.
Apart from the obligation to refine three Upper Grade Primordial Treasures every 1,000 years, River Styx was completely free. Even if he did not instruct the students in refining weapons, the academy would not mind. Of course, instructing the students in refining weapons was also a way to earn contribution points. However, River Styx was not interested in it at all. After all, it was too slow to earn contribution points.
The contribution points required by River Styx were not a small number. If he wanted to earn contribution points as soon as possible, there were only two ways in front of him. One was to go to the Mission Hall to accept tasks and complete them. Two was to sell Primordial Treasures. As long as River Styx could refine a large number of Primordial Treasures and sell them to the academy or the students, he would naturally earn a large number of contribution points.
Between the two paths, River Styx was more inclined towards the second path. Earning contribution points through missions was too troublesome, and it was easier to refine Innate Cardinal Treasures. In the Battlefield of Gods and Infernals, almost everyone had Innate Lingbao, and Innate Cardinal Treasures were the most valuable items. As for Half-Chaos Lingbao or Chaos Lingbao, they were even rarer. Even in the academy, there were not many of them.
When River Styx had first joined Yun Ling Academy, he had held back from refining weapons out of habit. Therefore, he had only refined Upper Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasures and became a Level Three Weapon Refining Teacher. Now, if he hastily refined a Supreme Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasure or a Half-Chaos Lingbao, it would definitely arouse suspicion. Therefore, at present, River Styx could only refine some Upper Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasures in exchange for contribution points.
According to the records in the identity token, a Upper Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasure could be exchanged for at least 50,000 contribution points. If it was powerful, it could be even more. River Styx received a salary of 110,000 contribution points per thousand years, but he had earned at least 150,000 contribution points for the academy. It seemed that he had suffered a loss, but in fact, it was not.
On the one hand, River Styx enjoyed the excellent practice environment of Yun Ling Academy. On the other hand, the materials needed to refine the three Upper Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasures were all provided by the academy. Moreover, the materials provided were not enough to refine just three Upper Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasures. After all, there was always a chance of failure. If he was careless and only refined a Middle Grade Primordial Cardinal Treasure, he would have to refine it again.
If River Styx wanted to sell the Primordial Cardinal Treasures to earn contribution points, he naturally had to prepare the materials himself. However, the contribution points needed to exchange for the materials were probably not a small amount. In the end, the contribution points earned were naturally far less than 150,000. It could be 120,000 or even 100,000. It all depended on how good River Styx's refining skills were.
At the thought of this, River Styx smiled. He was very confident in his refining skills. Moreover, he had a secret weapon, which made refining weapons even easier. But now, River Styx did not have time to think about this, because they had arrived at the library. It was a lofty building with an oppressive aura. Splendor flowed in the building, and the protective formation was hidden inside. If they barged in, they would be killed.
There were no guards at the entrance of the library, only the students of the academy going in and out. There were eight Transmitting Formations at the entrance, which corresponded to the eight floors. The ID Token recorded the cultivation of the holder. For example, River Styx had a cultivation of Half-step to Fate Realm, but he could only enter the seventh floor of the library. Of course, he could also enter the first to the sixth floor.
River Styx was not interested in the first to the sixth floor, because the seventh floor had everything that the first six floors had. After all, the library was open to everyone in Yunling Academy. A student of Daluo Jinxian's cultivation could only enter the first floor and exchange for a cultivation method with his contribution points. When he broke through to the Quasi-saint level, he could exchange for the subsequent cultivation methods on the second floor. Therefore, the books on the first floor were all available on the second floor, and so on. Naturally, the seventh floor had all the books on the first six floors.
In that case, how could the first six floors interest River Styx? Naturally, River Styx walked directly to the Transmitting Formation on the seventh floor. To enter the seventh floor of the library, one had to be at least a cultivation of Half-step to Fate Realm. In the academy, there were many experts of the Daluo Realm, but there were not many Half-step to Fate Realm experts. There were probably less than a hundred of them in total.
After entering the seventh floor of the library, River Styx looked around and found that there was no one on this floor. Thinking about it, there were not many Half-step to Fate Realm experts in the academy, so it was normal to not meet anyone on the seventh floor. After all, there was no time in cultivation, and any closed-door training could last thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Moreover, it was normal for an expert of the Half-step to Fate Realm to be in closed-door training to comprehend the Fate Realm.
River Styx carefully observed the seventh floor. There were countless jade slips placed on the countless bookshelves, which recorded various cultivation methods, formations, and other secrets. There were also corresponding areas for these jade slips. Moreover, there were restrictions on the bookshelves, and each jade slip had a corresponding introduction in front of it. Only by paying the corresponding contribution points could one obtain the information recorded in the jade slip.
There were no guards on the seventh floor, but River Styx had no intention of robbing. Putting aside the fact that the restrictions on the bookshelves were connected to the Great Formation in the library, the four statues placed on this floor were not to be trifled with. River Styx had done some research on puppets, so he could naturally tell that the four statues were puppets of the Half-step to Fate Realm.
Once the restrictions were triggered, not only would the Great Formation in the library be activated, but the four puppets would also be activated. At that time, the Fate Realm experts in the academy would be alerted, and it would be difficult for them to escape. Therefore, the academy naturally did not send anyone to guard the library. It was not because they were arrogant, but because there was really no need to do so. If experts who did not fear these puppets really came, even if they sent someone to guard the library, it would be useless.
As River Styx looked at the countless jade slips, he naturally felt an itch in his heart. He wished he could take all of them for himself, but with his current strength, there was no need to think about robbing them. It was better to spend his Contribution Points to look at these jade slips. The first thing that River Styx wanted to look at was naturally the records about the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. The jade slips with such records were the least on this floor, so he did not need to spend much Contribution Points.
With just a thousand Contribution Points, River Styx obtained all the information about the Battlefield of Gods and Demons recorded on this floor, including all the living creatures, Heavenly Treasures, Forbidden Lands, Treasure Lands, and so on on the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. This greatly benefited River Styx, but there was one piece of information that shocked River Styx. It was far more shocking than when he found out that the Great Desolation was not the only one.
The chaos seemed endless and boundless, but it actually existed. It was just that very few people had seen it. According to the records in the jade slip, the chaos wasn't the only chaos. Strictly speaking, there were four chaos, and they were the chaos of the east, south, west, and north. The chaos where the Nether River was located was the chaos of the east.
In the other three Desolations of Chaos, there was also a Chaos Demon God as powerful as Pangu. Just like Pangu, every level of Chaos played the same role and did the same things. Every time the sky was split open, three thousand worlds would be born in the Four Desolations of Chaos Demon God. They were all formed from the corpse of the Chaos Demon God of Sanqing. Therefore, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons this time was truly the Myriad Worlds.
The Battlefield of Gods and Demons was located at the center of the Four Desolations of Chaos. It was connected to the Four Desolations of Chaos. In every level of Chaos, when the Four Desolations of Chaos developed to a certain level, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons would open. Primordial Chaos experts from the Myriad Worlds would enter the Four Desolations of Chaos. As for what the conditions were, no one knew.
Of course, after entering the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, the people from the Four Desolations of Chaos and the Myriad Worlds would appear in the lower levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. In the lower levels, the people from the Four Desolations of Chaos would not be able to meet each other. Only after entering the middle levels would the people from the Four Desolations of Chaos truly be considered to be on the same side of the world. It could be said that the lower levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons were a buffer zone. It was also a form of protection from the Great Dao for the 'newcomers' of each epoch.
The middle levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons were mainly divided into five regions: the Eastern Region, the Western Region, the Southern Region, the Northern Region, and the Central Region. These four regions corresponded to the Four Desolations of Chaos. River Styx was currently in the Eastern Region, and the Central Region was the center of the middle levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. The density of the spiritual energy of the world and the Qi of Laws there was much higher than in the Four Desolations.
The Central Region was also the place where the Four Desolations of Chaos truly merged. One could imagine how complicated it was. Although there were countless opportunities there, it was also much more dangerous than in the Four Desolations of Chaos. The slightest carelessness could lead to a tragic death. In the Central Region, a Half-step to Creation Realm expert was no longer considered an expert. There were probably many Half-step to Infinite Realm experts.
Thinking of this, River Styx could not help but gasp. He could totally imagine what kind of place the Central Region was where the Four Desolations of Chaos converged. River Styx also had some guesses about the intentions of the Great Path. The Battlefield of Gods and Demons had countless opportunities and nurtured countless experts. In every era, Chaotic Primordial experts from the Four Desolations of Chaos and the Myriad Heavens would gather. They would kill for opportunities, kill for survival, and even kill for the sake of killing. There was only endless killing here, and the name of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was well-deserved.
Everything in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was just like the Great Path raising poisonous insects. Using the temptation of the endless opportunities on the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, it gathered the Chaotic Primordial experts of every era and allowed them to grow constantly in the midst of killing and finally become the strongest. This was no different from raising poisonous insects. Thinking of this, River Styx could not help but look solemn. The Great Path raised poisonous insects, but what was the purpose of these 'poisonous insects'?
